Before Sun And Moon

beforesunandmoon is a simple CLI tool for terminal stargazing. It allows you to explore random spots in space and provides information about celestial objects using Right Ascension (RA) and Declination (DEC) coordinates.

Usage

Explore

Explore a random spot in space and discover what's there:

beforesunandmoon explore --radius <radius_value>

By default, the radius is set to 5000 units. You can specify a custom radius using the --radius flag.

What's Here

Pick a specific spot in space and find out what's there:

beforesunandmoon whatshere --ra <ra_value> --dec <dec_value> --radius <radius_value>

Specify the Right Ascension (RA) and Declination (DEC) values along with an optional radius using the respective flags.
